Any tips for what to bring for a short hospital stay?

Thanks to everyone for all of your helpful comments. One of the best suggestions for me was to download movies to watch. With my iPad and ear buds I comfortably watched 2 movies through a very long night. As for mom, bringing my binder with her records was critical (they wanted proof of her flu and pneumonia vaccines among other things) and her meds from home. Staff asked me specifically for 3 of her meds. I gave them the prescription bottles, they administered the meds and logged it in the chart. And fwiw, the staff was fantastic. Every person from housekeeping to management was kind, compassionate and provided immediate service. And said “thank you” after providing each service. I was astounded. So mom is home and doing well. Has to be reminded constantly to leave the incision site alone (no stitches, just glue!) but she looks and feels much better. So gang, thanks again for all the support.
